Simultaneous operation of STA_IF and AP_IF
129+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
130+
131+
Simultaneous operation of STA_IF and AP_IF interfaces is supported.
132+
133+
However, due to restrictions of the hardware, there may be performance
134+
issues in the AP_IF, if the STA_IF is not connected and searching.
135+
An application should manage these interfaces and for example
136+
deactivate the STA_IF in environments where only the AP_IF is used.
